It turns out that Zii is a subsidiary of Creative, the MP3 player company. 
So, I guess that the Zii may not be so much Vapourware as Developerware... 
Still an absolutely beautiful toy. I think I may get one, but 400$ for 
device+their plazma sdk is kinda steep. I'd just put android or debian on 
it, I think... 

Is it worth it? That thing sounds like a dream come true, and if that 
plaszma OS is FOSS (doesn't appear to be, 400$ sdk considered, and that it's 
not advertised as GNU/Linux) it gets even better.

Part of me is doing the same thing as Bob and then the other half of me is 
saying that I can get a better supported device that is just as 'cool' for 
same or cheaper price.

The processor seems highly proprietary, even though it's running Android. 
Anyone know -anything- about this device?

(btw, I'm sending this via GMane and nntp, so if the message is borked 
please let me know)

How should I know if it works?  That's what beta testers are for.  I
only coded it.
